WOULD YOU CONSIDER BUYING A PROPERTY TO LET?
HENRY YORKE | MARKETFORM
“No I wouldn’t. It’s always going to be a risk buying rather than renting. Demand will be there but if it’s not high enough it could be very hard to cover the cost of the mortgage.”
MICHELLE BOYD | CATLIN
“Yes. It is the right time to buy now and the negative equity risk is worth taking. There is also a lot of competition for rental properties so it’s a good idea to buy now.”
STEVE MILLER | DANKSE
“I would consider it because it’s a good market at the moment. I’m not put off by negative equity in buying a property in London because the recovery is usually very quick.”
